OLD BUSINESS:
DESIGN STANDARD BROCHURE:
Mr. Harrison stated that Mr. Hall has been working with
Redmond and Johnston on a draft proposal of the Design
Guidelines brochure.
Mr. Hall stated that we have to draft guidelines for any
type of development be it a large, industrial, commercial,
residential or recreational type of development for the Town.
We have made a presentation showing the general design
guidelines for lighting, parking, architectural standards
streetscape, landscaping and environmental. The design
guidelines are part of the ordinance and that's what the law
is. When someone comes in and wants to do a development, we
need to have a brochure or handout that they can graphically
see what we are looking for.
The town commissioned Redmond and Johnston to work with us
to develop the design standards brochure. Mr. Hall introduced
Leslie Grunden who worked with him to compose the presentation.
Mr. Hall continued with the PowerPoint presentation of what
the brochure would require for a developer. When available
the final copy will be attached to the minutes. Mr. Hall
stated that the town will hand out brochures to applicants for
developments. Mr. Harrison said that Mr. Hall would have a
color copy of his presentation in his office if anyone wanted
to look at it.
NEW BUSINESS:
BRIAN AND KATHY SCHMIDT:
Mr. Schmidt brought in a concept plan of what he would like
to do on the property that he is planning to purchase and
subdivide on Old Trappe Road belonging to Mr. and Mrs. Floyd
McCracken. Mr. Schmidt showed the size of the property where
he would like to build and asked for recommendations from the
Board on what he needed to do to continue. Mr. English said
that he would need to bring back a plan showing the size of
the buildings that are already on the property, and how much
property he will take off from the original property for the
subdivision, showing each lot size. Mr. Schmidt was asked to
bring back a rough scale of the frontages, acres and the plan
of where he would like to build showing all footages from the
property lines.
Motion was made by Mr. Quidas to accept as a Concept Plan.
Motion was seconded by Mr. English. All were if favor with
an Aye.
JAY FAULKNER - ADDITION OF 50 FT. TO PROPERTY:
Mr. Jay Faulkner came before the board to ask for an addition
of 50 ft to the rear of his property. He would like to make
a property line revision.
Mr. Hall said that Mr. Faulkner was just adding a simple 50 ft.
line revision, and he is totally in the town with his property.
There is no non conformity in fact it might correct a non
conformity. Mr. Harrison said that he would give it a
favorable recommendation. Mr. Hall stated that his surveyor
had brought in the plat, but there were two corrections that
needed to be made on the plat. Mr. Harrison said that it would
be contingent upon corrected plat.
Motion was made by Mr. English to accept with plat corrections.
Motion was seconded by Mr. Quidas. All were in favor.
